First I really like my Corp. and running in a squad is good times but then sometimes I have a massive headache from looking at advanced carbon fiber foreward swept wing/fuselage/engine design (hobby).
Then its Advil time and I am unable to take any sound on a headset so then its sounds off and single running in a militia or starter fit.
Lonewolfing can be fun sometimes and then sometimes:
i.e. killed a Madrugar and the clowns inside then I had four Madrugars hunting me and the blueberries either left battle or ran and hid and I called down a free jeep and three Madrugars went for the Bolas kill so it drops on a fourth Madrugar and those clowns died and boy!! were those tank folks upset!, angry!! and they hunted me every domination match I was in that day...lol.
Plus lonewolfing is good for installation kills aka isk grinding.
Just waiting for new content.
So why do you lonewolf? |

Theres Dumb berries that use no mic and want to kill a Madrugar with a scrambler pistol.
Theres Smart berries that use no mic and will go 20 and 0 with whatever they feel like running.
Dumb berries never get a win.
Smart berries 95 times out of 100 see a Victory screen.
I only go 10 and 2 running starter fits but I think of myself as in the Smart berry section.

The last and best FPS team I was with were glitch hunters. We'd make custom games and try to jump out of maps, superjump, etc... best team ever. We would spend HOURS in a single custom game. ...but I was a fool and never got their real contact info and I lost touch with them all. Now I don't want to join because everyone is interested in their kill ratio and no one cares about pushing the game design. |

I do play alone (don't know if I can or cannot use the term "lonewolf") because us something i'm hardly accustomed to, most of the time, i'm the "silently jackasses of the neighborhood" so I don't tend to much to try and have someone to lend my gun and my back on the battlefield.
Plus, we're playing in New Eden, and is complicated to find someone trustworthy, because f you give people so much trust, then your wallet will end up empty with a "ha! ha!" message inside of it. |

Because I'm reluctant to affiliate. I also like taking my luck with random squads, have met up with some fun peeps from various corps that way.
I also don't have to worry so much about underperforming. If I underperform while alone I work out why and learn from it. Do so with a squad and I've let the squad down. |

I remember you actually, the Forge Gunner.
I lonewolf if I'm running Snipers, I don't really go without a squad most of the time, infact, unless I'm running snipers I'll always have a squad. |

And there's no one out there who's interested on pushing this, and other potentially games, to grow up, and enjoy it's core... Or simply pass hours role-playing, I try not to, but thanks to my annoying tendencies to live in ny own "wonderland" after a car accident, I get lost in many things I should not. Call me crazy, mad or simply lunatic. And no, It's not schizophrenia.

People suck. Generally speaking, of course.
Then, there was the corp I was in. Total douchery. Of noted epic proportion. Packed with wannabe elitist nerd snobbery and juveniles. Made the notion of earning my spot as an unbiased, hired hand a much more (personally) rewarding option.
I have too much fun dicking around with this game to be able take somebody seriously when they take it seriously. |

There were no survivors. LOL! That's hilarious! For me I think the funniest thing we did was use a Wraith to run into a guy that was crouched in a corner of a certain angle and would jump right when the wraith hit him. He'd get launched out of sight... and we found out that there were invisible platforms up there and you could run behind the maps and see what the devs worked on but never really released. So much cool art back there no one ever got to see. Back in Halo 2 there was a road cone one guy found that had a pistol hanging over it. The pistol shot some kind of crazy doomsday weapon that the giant scarab shot.... all these little easter eggs you find are awesome! Lost them after Halo 3 |

I like my corp. The squads are generally pretty great. (Well, for people wanting to have fun and not tryhard). I lone wolf because communicating without a headset, using a DS3m, is waaaaay too much hassle. I get into more games faster on my own. |

I lone wolf because I move fast and I do not like not to wait. Also I can take breaks when I want without bothering others. I love my corp but running solo is who I am in the game and in life. Also I curse alot because I am Heavy and I am sure no one wants to hear what I say when I get mad |

I'm a huge introvert and don't like people. I enjoy my Corp and my Corp mates, but have anxiety issues about joining squads and time commitments. Furthermore, I don't like meeting new people, so going out and getting random pubs does not work for me.
That's why I go out solo most of the time. |

I usually only lone wolf if no one is on.
My headset died recently, so I lone wolf a bit more because of that.
I lone wolf if i want to get some selfish sniping in. When I'm squaded up, I feel obligated to snipe supportively. Sometimes I just want to be an *******, and sit in a mountain or some obscure spot and watch the action. Only making a kill for the lolz. Maybe snipe at a friend or someone I recognize just to fk with them.
Lastly, I lone wolf so I can blast the volume and play Dust to my favorite music. Sometimes i'd play chill music in comms. Some of my corp mates like it. Some of my corp mates are pissy and particular about music or ANY sound coming over comms. So I just go solo to listen to music. |

I usually lone wolf when my other corp members are not online, which is often considering I'm in an extremely small corp.
I just don't trust random logi-bros to back my heavy up so I tend to snipe instead when I want to play infantry, and I don't trust random blueberries in the slightest when I'm tanking and the only HAV I want within 200 meters of me are those in my corp.
Sometimes though when I'm in a good team instead of hit-and-running with my HAV I instead drive in their midst. If you give me solid infantry support, I'll give you dedicated heavy artillery support. |

I lonewolf a fair bit because most Infantry don't help me out in a tank anyways, theres still an idea around that a tank can function by itself, and that a single AVer is no worry. Why waste my time coordinating with people who don't want to coordinate?
So I sit in scrubby locations, firing a railgun at people. |

If I find a cooperative armor tank I follow him with my logi and try to surpress any AV I see.
Sad thing is, most just ignore the fact i'm there and speed on down the road by themselves and die |

Sad thing is, most just ignore the fact i'm there and speed on down the road by themselves and die The last 3 HAVs I tried supporting had extremely stupid drivers
First one: armor blaster HAV. Drove out into the middle of nowhere, and shot at a railgun installation at the edge of the blaster's range. The railgun won, then shot me when I tried escaping
Second: shield rail. Drove into CQC trying to shoot infantry (I got 2 kills with the turret, the driver got none) even when the shields were completely down, they wouldn't retreat. I got killed trying to repair his dumb ass.
Third: armor blaster. Tried blowing up a CRU that our team would be better off with, so I went out and hacked it. Instead of waiting for me to get back in, the driver drove away as I got killed by nearby infantry which the driver didn't even look at. |

These days I mostly lonewolf if there's a trick or technique I want to try out-- something kind of outrageous that I don't want too many witnesses to. I'll probably be trying a plasma cannon scout fit in the next few weeks (for stealth + maximum light weapon FAZZZOTT) , and you'd best believe I'll be running solo for that fit's first night on the town. |

It's also good to lonewolf, because you can hop into a match and hop out if it looks like a bad blueberry line-up. Check rosters for both sides, and determine if its going to be a good fight or not. If the sides seem even, you stick around. If you know you're about to get stomped, you bail before it even starts.
When you lonewolf you can match hop a lot faster, instead of waiting for people to back out to MQ. |

I lonewolf, because there I play in the mornings. My regular squad-mates are either asleep or at work. I find the rest in corp insufferable. Back when we had a lot of people actually playing the game I only acted as a lonewolf when my earpiece had to recharge. But I've got a corded one now (with a 6' USB extension) |

I perform better by being a lonewolf.
Every time I've been in a squad, I am held back. |

I run solo to show how bad the rest of you are to need a squad to get stats worse then mine. |

pretty much same as alot of answers in here
i play loud music, rather than stick on mic
im pretty efficiant at lone wolf and i feel squads hold me back sometimes
random squads are generally rubbish
im so anti social and not really interested in making "internet" friends
with all that being said, i have just joined a corp on my main, so fingers crossed for me lol

I don't squad up for a few reasons. Here's a list in no particular order.
I didn't see the squad invite.
I did see the squad invite, but i remember the name of the sender as a jacka$$. And so, I will not be joining anything they are connected with.
I have been in squads where it was no different than running solo, except I gave some knucklehead the chance to call in orbitals. And screw that. Find another source of WPs.
I'm going to snipe.
I don't want company or complications.
I should probably say that I do give any squad I join a chance. I don't just just quit cause they aren't doing what I want. But if there's no body backing anybody up. No team work, and no real sense of working together. What's the difference between that and running solo? I miss being a part of a group. I was a member of a squadron in a WWII sim for a along time, and it was great. So I will probably will be looking for a corp to join. Just not right away. |

Sometimes it feels good to pick off your enemy one by one, brings out the predator in you, that and the satisfaction of a well thought out plan leading to the death of others has no other! |

I have OCD, if I see something happening like a lone redberry capping a NC, I'll ditch my 'tight nit' squad to ruin that guy's day. I also have a vengeful personality, if you snipe me, I will hunt you down like a dog. |

I also don't have to worry so much about underperforming. If I underperform while alone I work out why and learn from it. Do so with a squad and I've let the squad down.
That about sums it up.
He is the core gamer, the bastard child of the casual and hardcore gamer. He invests the former's effort and cries when he doesn't get the latter's results.

I squad up at times with mic and head set and I prefer the squads that work together. I think a a good squad could seriously hold down two objectives if they work it right.
I've been in a couple that are really good in coordinating things....but most of the time, I get guys that are free for all do whatever...the leader doesn't even set objectives or no one follows them. One time, we had a squad that was set for an orbital strike but the leader didn't know how to do it...
I'm loning it right now to get my sp's up and skills up. Working out how to survive and get my kill ratio up. I squad up when I get an invite and or run into someone I squaded with before...when running solo, I will follow/protect someone that I see is doing good/cool things...else, I'm off on my own...

So I sit in scrubby locations, firing a railgun at people.
Ahh, but I see the corporation you're in. Surely there's people to play and coordinate with? Or are you implying something about your corp-mates? |
